© Hannah Vickers Kom ned fra Great Gable og tok en liten lunsjpause på bensinstasjonen i Keswick. Og så dro jeg på en liten tur til Skiddaw for å utnytte resten av dagslys (mange timer med dagslys her, flere enn 7 timer!!). Parkerte ved Underscar hotel og fulgte stien opp fjellet. Her var det skikkelig fint vær, ihvertfall den første halvtimen på tur opp. Deretter skyet det til og det var surt med sterk kuling helt til topps og ned igjen. Men det var likevel godt med å ha fått litt påfyll av vitamin D :)

© Hannah Vickers Gikk en liten fottur med mora og søstera mi mens vi var i nordvest England i helgen. Var ikke så motiverende vær og ganske tung, disig luft men likevel ganske tørt. Bra sti hele veien men ingen utsikt på toppen. Artig å gå på tur med familien som turfølge, selv om det krevde litt tålmodighet for å gå mye saktere!

After our previous day's hike in the Borrowdale valley, this time myself and Jay took a more local walk, and up Skiddaw. Fantastic weather and conditions underfoot were a guarantee for a great day out, and despite starting off in a winter jacket, I was down to my vest top by the time we reached the top of Skiddaw. The sun shone perfectly over the snow-covered fells and it was a superb hike all round. We joined lots of other happy hikers at the summit for some lunch, before taking the eastern slopes down toward Skiddaw House. Once we'd reached here, we followed the footpath skirting above Glenderaterra Beck to get back to Keswick.

A walk up to the summit of Skiddaw from Bassenthwaite with Syam, Dave and Bev Smith. The route went up from the north side over Long Side edge, the weather was pretty unpleasant for most of the day and the wind was very strong after we had passed Carl Side and started the final pull up onto Skiddaw. I didn't have crampons with me and had a couple of awkward and delicate steps on the icy rocks. Trouble was that there wasn't a lot of snow cover, so what was there was quite hard and frozen. We descended soon after passing the summit trig point and down the northeastern side down to Whitewater dash. Had some lunch here before the rain got heavier and then continued on our way down to Bassenthwaite again following the Cumbria Way. Coffee with Syam, Bev and Dave again in Keswick before I got on a >>>
